The Attorney General is defending the legality of recent presidential appointments of advisors, arguing they were made within the President's constitutional powers and without requiring parliamentary approval or public participation. This comes as the Katiba Institute challenges the appointments in court, claiming they were done secretly and unlawfully.

• The AG cites Article 132(4)(a) of the Constitution and Regulation 27 of the Public Service Commission Regulations, 2020, as legal basis.
• The Salaries and Remuneration Commission (SRC) has also filed opposition, stating the petition has no reasonable cause of action against it.
• The Katiba Institute seeks to nullify the appointments, alleging the President overstepped his authority.
